While media reports often frame such events as unprecedented results of climate change, the town's mayor noted that the Army Corps of Engineers prevented them from building a 14-foot levee, mandating a 5-foot limit instead. The surge eventually reached nine feet, overwhelming the restricted system.

While some abandoned buildings remain, significant reconstruction is visible, with residents living in rebuilt homes and children playing in yards. The media is accused of cherry-picking ruins to maintain a specific narrative of permanent disaster.
